Date: 18 Jun 2009, 20:42 GMT | i have just had hte xda zest today and am already ready to throw across the room,
i find it slow, hte touch screen isnt too great you really have to press on the screen to be picked up. The battery life is awful, i charged all day before even turning on, and before i new it it was down to 60%.
i cannot seem to sync either as i have a mac, therefore i tried the bluetooth option which shock horror failed also. Does anyone else have this issue with the bluetooth/ any file i attmept to send no matter waht type, an error will come back saying device does not accept this file.
arrrrrrr help!?!?! iam at my last wits with this phone, and may have to return. :( |

Date: 04 May 2009, 14:09 GMT | The phone looks great but I've noticed a few flaws.
Firstly it's slow, based on Windows what can I expect. The browsers don't support all plugins, I realise this is not a phone problem, more one of the 3rd party mobile software manufacturers but then again the iPhone doesn't have these issues. The phone is hard to navigate, for example I don't know how to change my default bluetooth storage location. The internal GPS software is only on trial so you'd think for a £200 handset only phone there would be a full version but then again that would be pointless as the GPS range is terrible. I get about halfway along my journey before the phone can even pick up my current location. There is a port on the side of the phone to connect an external GPS antenna but it's a nightmare to try to find one. O2 really should sell one of these on their online shop. I'm still searching. I wanted a Blackberry for the keyboard but it was £350 standalone so was forced to compromise. If I had the choice again I would save a little longer and get the iPhone or Blackberry. |
